China, Trade and Supply Chains: Policy and Operational Risks

Webinar | 10.07.20, 11:00 AM EDT - 12:00 PM EDT

China has been at the center of domestic conversations about trade, tariffs and supply chains for the last several years – and these conversations have only accelerated during the current COVID-19 pandemic. In recent months, Capitol Hill and both presidential campaigns are actively talking about how to reduce supply chain overdependence, with broad questions about ”decoupling” looming in the background. Yet how real are these conversations moving forward? What legal and policy changes should manufacturers be watching? And how much have these policy conversations actually impacted company operational decisions?


The National Association of Manufacturers (NAM) is pleased to invite you to join other members on Wednesday, October 7th at 3:00 p.m. EDT (12:00 p.m. PDT) for the next program in their China speaker series, a webinar that will dig into the rapidly evolving conversation on China, trade and supply chains, including current and future developments, their policy implications, and the operational impact for manufacturers in the United States. NAM will be joined by four speakers to discuss these topics in depth: 


  • Evan Y. Chuck, Partner, Crowell & Moring
  • David R. Stepp, Partner, Crowell & Moring
  • Ben Bidwell, Director, U.S. Corporate Customs, C.H. Robinson
  • Jason Craig, Manager, Government Affairs, C.H. Robinson

But that does not tell the entire story. The Administration remains committed to exercising a heavy hand in AI, including by banning the U.S. government’s procurement of so-called “woke AI,” intervening in the development of data centers and the export of the AI technology stack, imposing an export fee for certain semiconductors to China, and assuming a stake in a U.S. semiconductor company. State legislatures are also racing to implement their own regulations, particularly around AI’s use in critical areas, such as healthcare, labor and employment, and data privacy. The many sources of regulation raise the specter of a fragmented compliance environment for businesses. This webinar will delve into the Administration’s AI strategy, going beyond the headlines to analyze:...
